BJP Bangla Bandh Nabanna Abhijan Highlights: Speaking for the first time on the Kolkata Doctor Rape-Murder Case, President Droupadi Murmu told PTI that she is 'dismayed and horrified' by the incident. While speaking to news agency, the President said that very often a ‘deplorable mindset' sees the female as a lesser human being, less powerful, less capable, and less intelligent. She also said that society needs an ‘honest, unbiased self-introspection', and to ask itself some difficult questions on crimes against women. "In 12 years since Nirbhaya, countless rapes have been forgotten by society; this 'collective amnesia' is obnoxious," she further said. She later issued an official statement on the incident.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said that next week, she will call an Assembly session and pass a Bill within 10 days to ensure capital punishment for rapists. "We will send this Bill to the Governor. If he doesn't pass, we will sit outside Raj Bhavan. This Bill must be passed and he cannot evade accountability this time."

Vineet Goyal to take charge as Kolkata Police commissioner today
Gyanwant Singh, a 1993-batch officer, will now take the dual charges of CID, which he headed as the additional director-general, as well as that of the STF.
Apart from Goyal, Praveen Kumar Tripathi, who is now DIG (Malda range), will return to Kolkata Police as the additional CP. Kolkata Police’s DCP (STF) Aparajita Rai will head for Kalimpong as its police superintendent and SP Kalimpong Harikrishna Pai will become the DCP (STF).
Goyal, who has served in several key positions both in Kolkata Police and state police, had joined the Bengal cadre in August 1995. He had worked across Bengal, Kolkata Police, CID and recently, STF. In fact, he was in the thick of action when an STF team gunned down two Punjab gangsters in a New Town complex earlier this year. Goyal was also the director, security. In Kolkata Police, he had worked as a DCP, including DCP (Traffic), rising gradually to the post of an additional police commissioner. He has also studied public policy from a Singapore-based institute.
Goyal, however, did not speak on his new appointment immediately.
According to officers who have worked with Goyal, he is believed to be always on the lookout for introducing technology in policing. During his work in Kolkata Police and later, in the newly formed STF, Bengal saw the units actively adopting modern investigation tools. In the CID, too, he played a similar role. A senior officer said, “He joins Kolkata Police at a time when it is adopting more technology even for conventional policing.”
Alok Rajoria, now the Malda police superintendent, will be the new DIG (Malda Range), replacing Tripathi. Sukesh Singh, who served as DIG (State Armed P
